California Man Bites A Woman's Pet Python Twice & Gets A Beating From Owner!
"A snakebite in a north Sacramento neighborhood
left the victim seriously hurt, but the injured
party isn't whom you'd expect.
Police say a python underwent emergency surgery
after a man allegedly bit the creature twice.
Officers were called to Del Paso Heights around
6:30 p.m. Thursday after a passer-by reported that
a man was lying on the ground and might have been
assaulted, according to Sgt. Andrew Pettit. When
they arrived, they found David Senk, 54, still
lying there — but police say he wasn't the one who
was assaulted.
Another man approached officers and accused Senk
of taking two bites out of his pet python, Pettit
said.
The man, who was an acquaintance of Senk, told
police that the suspect asked to hold the pet,
then began biting, the Sacramento Bee reported.
Senk was arrested on suspicion of unlawfully
maiming or mutilating a reptile and booked on
$10,000 bail.
Pettit said it wasn't immediately clear why Senk
bit the snake, or whether he was intoxicated at
the time.
